Ocarina of Time Equipment

|
Kokiri Sword Child |
 |
Shortly after our adventure begins, you find the hidden treasure of Kokiri,
the Kokiri Sword. While it doesn't do much damage, it's reliable and just
your size!
We are forced to get this item before we can go see the Great Deku tree.
It's found in the southeastern corner of Kokiri Forest.
|  |
|
|
Master Sword Adult |
 |
The mystical sword from many of the other Zelda titles makes an appearance!
It's the only thing that can defeat the King of Evil, so it's a good thing
you get it, huh? This is trusty blade fits your new size and has further
range than your Kokiri treasure. Your Spin Attack is quite improved with it
as well.
You receive this blade shortly after getting the three Spiritual Stones and
opening the Door of Time.
|  |
|
|
Biggoron's Sword Adult |
 |
This two handed blade does twice the damage of the Master Sword! You can't
use your shield while you wield it however... It's very
handy to take down some of the harder "big health" enemies such as Stalfos,
and it's excellent against almost all of the bosses, in particular Dark Link
and Bongo Bongo. Unfortunately, it's awkward to use against flying enemies
like Keese and Guays or ranged foes.
You get this sword from Biggoron atop Death Mountain (thus, the name). It's
the end reward of a very lengthy trading sequence.

Deku Shield Child |
 |
The first shield you get in the game, it's reliable and mobile and gives
decent protection against most types of attacks. You can use it to reflect
some projectile attacks as well, such as Deku Nuts or rocks. Unfortunately,
it's made of wood and can burn easily against Fire Keese, Dodongos and lava.
Initially, you have to buy it in the Kokiri Shop for 40 Rupees before you
can even see the Great Deku Tree. Later on, you may have to purchase it
again during your journey if you burn yours accidentally... Luckily, there's
lots of Business Scrubs around who offer this service. (Maybe they're
secretly behind it all, trying to burn your shield!)
|  |
|
|
Hylian Shield Both |
 |
The second shield of the game, this trustworthy defense is made of steel and
won't burn up like your last shield. Unfortunately, it's too big for you as
a child and leaves you to hide under it rather than walk around. Later on,
you'll be able to maneuver with it much easier. As an adult, this shield
will reflect normal type attacks back at your enemies.
This shield can be bought from the shop in Hyrule Town Market (past) or in
Kakariko Village (future) for 80 Rupees. For the initial purchase, if you
talk to the guard at the base of Death Mountain first, he'll knock the price
down to 60. There is, however, a free Hylian Shield hidden in the
Graveyard...
|  |
|
|
Mirror Shield Adult |
 |
This sturdy shield is tougher than heck! regular projectiles just smash into
pieces when they hit this shield, while magical attacks disintigrate against
it (and sometimes even get reflected)! If you have this shield equipped and
get swallowed by a Like Like, it won't eat it, which is cool (especially
since you can't buy it back o.O)
It's found in the second half of the Spirit Temple and is required to defeat
the boss of the temple, the Twinrova sisters.
|  |
| Another thing worth noting is that the design for
the original game (N64) was the shape of a crescent moon and a star,
which resembles a religious symbol and was thus changed for the
Master Quest and later versions of the game. |

|
Kokiri Tunic Both |
 |
Our hero was raised by the Deku Tree in Kokiri Forest amongst the other
children of the forest who wore this same style of tunic. It doesn't do
anything special, but it's the trademark of the series, so you're bound to
wear it most of your journey.
You start out with this one and there's no way to lose it at any point in
the game.
|  |
|
|
Goron Tunic Adult |
 |
As a child heading to the top of Death Mountain, you probably took a peek at
the Death Mountain Crater, which is too hot for you to be in for long!
There's got to be some way around that, huh? The Gorons have a tunic
designed for people who can't stand heat like they can (why would they
design such a thing?) which is good, cause you have to go to the Crater to
get to the Fire Temple.
You first get this tunic from Darunia's son when you return to Goron City in
the future. You can also buy it from the Goron Shop in the lowest portion of
the city. Just watch out, it can be eaten by Like Likes if you don't kill
them fast enough!
|  |
|
|
Zora Tunic Adult |
 |
There's a couple bodies of deep water in the game that are just begging to
be explored. Unfortunately you can't exactly breathe underwater, so we're
left in an awkward place, no? Fortunately, the Zoras have designed a tunic
so people can be underwater, like them! (Once again, why would they do
that?) It's a good thing, since the Water Temple is at the bottom of Lake
Hylia.
You first get this tunic from King Zora in Zora's Domain after thawing the
Red Ice off of him (and completing the Ice Cavern). Alternatively, you can
buy it from the Zora Shop, of course, but that's spendy! Just watch out,
just like the Goron Tunic, Like Likes will digest (and destroy) it if you
don't kill them fast enough!
|  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kokiri Boots Both |
 |
These regular boots don't do anything special, as depressing as that is.
They're reliable and what'd you'd expect in... boots I suppose...
You start out with these puppies, 'nuff said.
|  |
|
|
Iron Boots Adult |
 |
Regular boots just aren't cutting it anymore? Need something more
interesting? How about boots with a ton of metal strapped to them! No? Don't
worry, even though they're complete crap on land, they make you move quickly
on the sandy floors underwater! Along with the Zora Tunic, they make an
awesome team. =)
The one question I have is: how do you float when you take them off?
These heavy beasts are found at the end of the Ice Caverns.
|  |
|
|
Hover Boots Adult |
 |
This mysterious set of footwear allows you to, as the name so eloquently
puts it, "hover," when you step out over a ledge for a few brief moments.
After that, it's a free fall to your doom. This is great to cross over big
distances that are too far to jump. Unfortunately, wearing these things
makes you float on everything, including the floor, so it's just like
running on ice! Still a cool addition though...
These things are found during the beginning of the Shadow Temple.

Deku Seed Bullet Bag Child |
 |
The first Bullet Bag allows you to carry up to 30 Deku Seeds, the ammo for
your Slingshot.
You automatically receive this item when you get the Fairy Slingshot in the
first dungeon of the game: Inside The Deku Tree.
|  |
|
|
Big Deku Seeds Bullet Bag Child |
 |
The first upgrade lets you carry up to 40 Deku Seeds!
There's two upgrades for the Bullet Bag, but it doesn't matter which order
you get them in:
1) In the Lost Woods, from Kokiri, go right once, then
shoot the center of the target hanging from the tree until you get "100
points." Get three 100s in a row to get the upgrade.
2) In the Hyrule Town Market, get a perfect score at the
Shooting Gallery to be gifted with the upgrade.
|  |
|
|
Biggest Deku Seeds Bullet Bag Child |
 |
The second and final upgrade lets you carry up to 50 Deku Seeds!
There's two upgrades for the Bullet Bag, but it doesn't matter which order
you get them in:
1) In the Lost Woods, from Kokiri, go right once, then
shoot the center of the target hanging from the tree until you get "100
points." Get three 100s in a row to get the upgrade.
2) In the Hyrule Town Market, get a perfect score at the
Shooting Gallery to be gifted with the upgrade.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Quiver Adult |
 |
The first quiver you get only has the capacity for 30 Arrows, which isn't
much at all.
You get this puppy as soon as you find the Fairy Bow in the Forest Temple.
|  |
|
|
Big Quiver Adult |
 |
The first upgrade for the Quiver lets you hold up to 40 Arrows!
There's two upgrades for the Quiver, but it doesn't matter which order you
do them in:
1) Get a perfect score at the Shooting Gallery in Kakariko as an adult.
2) Get at least 1500 points at the Horseback Archery Range at the Gerudo
Fortress.
|  |
|
|
Biggest Quiver Adult |
 |
The second and final upgrade lets you hold up to 50 Arrows! It's too bad
it's not bigger, you can use that much up quickly.
There's two upgrades for the Quiver, but it doesn't matter which order you
do them in:
1) Get a perfect score at the Shooting Gallery in Kakariko as an adult.
2) Get at least 1500 points at the Horseback Archery Range at the Gerudo
Fortress.

Bomb Bag Both |
 |
This fancy bag is made from the stomachs of Dodongos, which I think is a
stupid explanation. If Bombs are the weakness of Dodongos and makes them
explode, why would I want a bag made of that? Does that mean I might explode
at any moment?! Just a thought...
This bag initially allows you to hold up to 20 Bombs. Pretty sweet I tell
you.
Found within the second dungeon of the game, Dodongo's Cavern.
|  |
|
|
Big Bomb Bag Both |
 |
The first upgrade has a silver stripe instead and lets you hold up to 30
Bombs. Yay'ness!
There's two upgrades, but they can be gotten in either order:
1) Stop Hot Rodder Goron's wild rolling in Goron City under the big
overhang.
2) One of the five prizes at the Bombchu Bowling Alley.
|  |
|
|
Biggest Bomb Bag Both |
 |
The second and final upgrades has an awesome gold stripe!!! (and lets
you hold up to 40 Bombs!)
There's two upgrades, but they can be gotten in either order:
1) Stop Hot Rodder Goron's wild rolling in Goron City under the big
overhang.
2) One of the five prizes at the Bombchu Bowling Alley.

|
Goron's Bracelet Child |
 |
This bracelet allows you to pick up plants and rip them right out of the
ground, roots and all! Sounds dumb, but let's see you do it - it's hard!
You get this item from Darunia in Goron City. It's required in order to
enter Dodongo's Cavern.
|  |
|
|
Silver Gauntlets Adult |
 |
Most people have to pump iron for ages before they can finally pick up
really heavy things. Not Link. He cheats and gets these things to let him
pick up silver boulders. This is, of course, assuming that silver boulders
are heavier than regular boulders. Didn't you learn that in school? I think
I missed that somehow... Also, wouldn't this make Link swing his sword
harder or something? I guess not.
These gauntlets are found in the first half of the Spirit Temple.
|  |
|
|
Golden Gauntlets Adult |
 |
How could it get any better than picking up silver boulders man, I mean,
come on, silver boulders... Well, Nintendo managed to come up with an
excuse. There's even bigger silver things! That's right, silver
and big! There's two colossal silver obelisks (tall object with a
pyramid shaped top) found in the game: one within Ganon's Castle blocking
the way to the Light Barrier, and one just outside the castle guarding the
final Great Fairy Fountain. Just press A on them and watch the cinematic.
Ooooo...
This upgraded pair of gloves are found in Ganon's Castle in the Shadow Wing.

|
Silver Scale Both |
 |
This cool blue thing is a scale from one of the Zoras. Apparently, if you
rip one of those off of them or catch them after shaving, you can get one of
these things! It lets you dive down to 3 additional units (meters?) which
gives you a total of 6! That's deep man, real deep!
This item is a prize for beating the Diving Game in Zora's Domain the first
time.
|  |
|
|
Golden Scale Both |
 |
This golden variety of the last item (straight from a mystical golden Zora?)
allows you to dive an additional additional 3 units (meters?) which
gives you a total of 9! Just crazy I tell you... It's only really good to
get a heart piece, but it is pretty nice for the Water Temple as well,
assuming you know how to get it early with the Scarecrow's Song...
You can win this item by getting a fish that's 15+ pounds at the Fishing
Pond in Lake Hylia. |  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Child's Wallet Both |
 |
This little wallet only allows you to carry up to 99 Rupees and makes you
feel very poor... but luckily, you can get an upgrade to it early on, so
it's all good. =)
You start out with this crappy thing.
| |
|
|
Adult's Wallet Both |
 |
Finally! This upgraded wallet lets you carry up to 200 Rupees! Not great,
but still good.
You get this prize from the first child (10+ tokens) in the House of Skulltula.
| |
|
|
Giant's Wallet Both |
 |
Woot! The final upgrade for the wallet gives you a limit of 500 Rupees!
Unfortunately, by the time you can hold that much, you don't really need to
save up your Rupees for anything... All well, it still feels good...
You get this prize from the third child (30+ tokens) in the House of Skulltula.
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Stone of Agony Both |
 |
This strange stone closely resembles a Rumble Pack for the N64. With this in
your inventory, your controller will vibrate whenever a Gold Skulltula is
nearby. That is assuming that you aren't using an amazing guide, like this
one.
You get this prize from the second child (20+ Tokens) in the House of
Skulltula.
| |
|
|
Gerudo Membership Card Adult |
 |
This slip of paper proves you're a "real thief" and allows you to go
anywhere you like in the Gerudo Fortress from now on. Apparently, "real
thieves" carry around cards to prove their *shifty eyes* thief'y'ness...
Maybe other thieves steal it, realize what it is and put it back...?
You get this item from the Gerudo Captain after rescuing all the carpenters
in the Gerudo Fortress.

|
|
Heart Containers Both |
 |
The Zelda series has consistently given players Heart Containers for
defeating all of the bosses in most of the games. They increase your life by
one whole heart to progressively make you spifftacular. That's right, I did
indeed just combine the word spiffy with spectacular. It fits our desired
description well, don't you think? |  |
|
|
Heart Pieces Both |
 |
Another thing common to the Zelda series is Heart Pieces, which you can
collect to make more Heart Containers (4 pieces = 1 container). It's kind of
a fun way to feel rewarded for side quests rather than just getting Rupees
(boring!)
There's 36 Heart Pieces which gives you a total of 9 Hearts, should you
choose to collect them. Check out our Heart Piece Guide to find them all.
|  |
|
|
Gold Skulltula Tokens Both |
 |
What game would be complete without a serious collectable item? In Kakariko
Village, there's a building called the House of Skulltula, with six people
inside that are cursed with the "Curse of the Spider," making them all
spider-like. Go figure. By killing Gold Skulltulas scattered all over Hyrule
(of course) and collecting the tokens they leave behind, you can slowly cure
the family and get nifty prizes!
To learn more about the quest to collecting all 100 Tokens (you know you
want to), check out our fantastical Gold Skulltula Guide.

|
Spiritual Stones Child |
For the first part of the game, we are trying to collect the three Spiritual
Stones (of Forest, Fire and Water). They're used to open the Door of Time in
the Temple of Time. Zelda sends you off to collect them to keep them from
Ganondorf's hands.
The bear a similarity to the Pendants of Virtue from A Link To The Past and
the Goddess Pearls from The Wind Waker. |

Kokiri's Emerald |
Goron's Ruby |
Zora's Sapphire |

|
Medallions Adult |
| The Medallions are a physical representation of the power
given to you by the Sages (one for each of them) and their willingness to
help you seal away the King of Evil. As you progress through the temples and
awaken each of the Sages, you'll get a new Medallion. It's a handy way to
keep track of which dungeons you've completed. |
